Children are not just God’s property, they are also God’s weapons of war. This is why you must be very careful in the way you handle or treat them. Jesus gave us a fascinating revelation about children in Matthew 18:10, where He said:
“Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven.”
From this revelation, we understand that every child has at least one angel guiding him or her. Have you seen an angel before? By His grace I have seen them a couple of times and I can say that they can be fearfully huge, particularly some of the mighty angels. If you were to meet one of such angels, the first thing he will likely say to you is “Fear not!” Why? Nobody will see an angel for the first time without being terrified. Speaking of the size of some of the mighty angels: although one of the world’s largest airplanes is an Airbus A380, do you know that one mighty angel can carry this airplane on the palm of his hand? God says that every child has an angel, and every one of such angels has direct access to God. Attaching a powerful angel to a child is what makes children a terrific weapon. If you mess around with a child, you are inviting an angel of God to deal with you.
 
Moreover, children are weapons in God’s hands because we the older ones are so preoccupied with the hustle and bustle of life that our ears have become dull of hearing. When God speaks, we often don’t hear, but the ears of children are open to God. They do not worry as we do. In fact, children believe that all they need will be provided for by their parents. So time after time, when God wants to send a message, He could send it through a child. This is one reason why parents must adhere strictly to God’s word in raising their children in the fear and admonition of the Lord. A child that is brought up to love and fear the Lord will be a great asset and tool in God’s hands. Such a family, as busy as the parents may be, will not lack divine direction, as the children will be able to hear from God. How often does God speak to your children? Are you raising them in the ways of God? Written by Pastor E.A. Adeboye.

The only reason Christianity still exists today is this. Childhood indoctrination. Feeding them all this irrational nonsense before they can start to think for themselves.

And who indoctrinated the first Christians?

Good question. The largest initial growth of Christianity started when it was chosen as the official religion of the Roman Empire. People had no choice. Believe or be killed.

Until just a few centuries ago, anyone in Christian nations who expressed the slightest doubt of the existence of God was burned alive.

A very efficient method that saw this form of insanity spread exponentially.

I didn't ask for no largest growth. I asked who indoctrinated the first Christians. Who made those Jewish fellows abandon their life ambitions for one Christ that you suppose never existed?

Like many other religions, they chose a different path that seemed like the best thing available to them at the time.

I attributed the persistent spread of Christianity in modern day to indoctrination, not it's inception.

Indoctrination. The reason it STILL EXISTS. Not the reason it started.

You have no point. How can rational men choose a different path they know nothing about and are not assured of over their jobs? With so many preferring to die cruelly than giving up their faith. How can something supernatural not be behind this 'different path'? Is it normal to you? Lie or explain it away, we all know it is beyond normal.

After their conversion, did they keep mute or spread what has been revealed to them to other nations? yes. Were the assured that the one that started this will preserve it till the end? yes Did they preach about wolves rising to scatter the beautiful plan of God but will be duly punished at the end? yes and so we see today. Did they preach that God will be with believers to the end of the world? absolutely yes.

The same one that made it exist in their own time, is the same behnd its continuous existence.

Too late, your assumptions of it existence being as a result of indoctrination cannot fly because they are mere assumptions.

You answered your own question. They are not rational men. They are irrational, illogical, uninformed men.

Explore almost any other religion, and you'll see your early Christians are not alone in facing persecution and oppression for thinking differently from the norm of their Era.

Every child is born with no concept of religion. Stop polluting their minds with your Jewish folklore.
